hi

let me explain what i want
I have four pages.two html, one js and one php. First page is loginTab.html. There is a tab called "Tab One" when user clicks on it there is a script inside this html page which calls function and loads an external login.html form using ajax. in login.html there is a form and include external js code for ajax functions. what it does is when the user enters email and password and clicks submit then it triggers another ajax function which send a query to php file and compare those variables there with mysql db and returns the message to a div which is in login.html.

the problem here is when i enter email and password and clicks on submit button it does not display anything. How this problem can be solved.i am providing all of my code below

loginTab.html
